Beyer & Peacock NSW C30

Discover the powerful NSW C30, a classic steam locomotive with a rich history. Built by Beyer & Peacock and NSWGR from 1903 to 1917, 145 of these iconic machines graced the Australian railways.

Known for its 4-6-4 wheel arrangement and a substantial weight of 73 tonnes, the C30 is a testament to robust engineering. Its standard gauge of 1435 mm allowed it to operate across significant routes.

The UIC axle configuration of 2'C2' h2 highlights its specialized design. Today, the NSW C30 continues to be cherished by private owner groups in Australia, proudly carrying the C30 class designation.
